Vehicle plows into counter protesters in Charlottesville

In case anyone was wondering whether alt-right leaders would take a long hard look in the mirror after this Alex Jones is saying the riots were staged so the Left could declare martial law and ban Conservative gatherings while Mike Cernovich is blaming the mainstream media for inciting violence and saying "the left has declared jihad against us".

Fucking idiots, the lot of them.

Every goddamn time. I guess the people hit by the car were crisis stuntmen. How will things ever improve with fuckwits like this twisting reality to fit their agenda.

A friend was venting about how bad America is getting the other day and all I could offer was "at least people aren't getting run over by cars in broad daylight"

Fuck.

Imagine if a brown person drove through a KKK rally bc they "were scared." Guarantee you they wouldn't get to sit on the floor peacefully and have cops form an alibi for them.

The only potential excuse is a mechanical failure on the part of the car, which he didn't even pretend was the issue. And even then, he had ample room to hit anything other than a crowd. Twice.

And fuck our chicken shit asshole of a president for not condemning this and even touching the "both sides" excuse. There's no two sides to literal white supremacy and driving through crowds.

Not seeing even a scratch on this car from any kind of previous harassment.

Nope, doesn't even look like a scratch on it.

This shot also confirms that he couldn't see the two vehicles in the crowd, like I suspected and mentioned earlier.

This is an act of terrorism, no other way to describe it. It is disgusting that neo nazis are allowed to get away with publicly committing atrocities such as this while your average black man can be executed for simply existing, then face accusations of fault. Things need to change but they never will under any Republican government.
 
I've said it before and I'll say it again. These alt-right/white nationalists and terrorists are just two sides of the same coin. Now they're even using the same tactics.

He wasn't alone.
ran the plate vs ohio database. It matches a 2010 Dodge Challenger. So plates and vehicle match.

Hopefully makes it quicker to catch those responsible

Given the car, short of being stolen the person who did it knew they weren't going to get awaynwith it, and it was worth it to protect their delicate skin. Hope he's tried as a terrorist. Also fully awaiting the rage at the defense claiming it wasn't.

Terrorism.

That driver will be caught and his future life will be in a concrete box.
Dude is already in handcuffs and there's plenty of video evidence. You shouldn't worry about him. What you should worry about is the authorities' constant unwillingness to disavow the groups that commit these acts, as they will only feel more encouraged to repeat them in the future.

AP confirming the driver is in custody

The Associated Press @AP
BREAKING: State official says driver of car that plowed into group of protesters in Charlottesville, Va., is in custody
 
Any unorthodox means of getting rid of Trump will only result in disaster and have more people side with the Nazis. Our best shot is to block him by winning congress in 2018, and winning the presidency in 2020.
I'm actually sick and tired to listen about whatever the fuck you do you turn people into Nazis.

Like it's some disease you catch easily.

I mean if the bolded is correct we might as well just nuke the fuck out of each other if turning Nazi is as easy as catching a cold.

You should probably pixelate the plates, unlikely that is the perp, owner's kid who is car's registered user is a pretty vocal antitrumper on twitter, car likely stolen.

The driver was arrested and is claiming they were scared
(obviously I'm addressing the driver here, not you)

They saw a crowd of people a fair distance in front of them, got scared for some reason, and instead of backing up (and btw seconds later they showed they knew where reverse was), they floored it and knowingly drove literally into the people, THEN backed up?

That has got to be the worst excuse ever. The second video shows it was clearly deliberate.
